HOFFMAN SPECIALTY(r) ANNOUNCES UPDATES TO
ONLINE STEAM COMPONENT SELECTOR PROGRAM

Chicago, Ill... August 2, 2005 - Hoffman Specialty(r), a unit of ITT
Industries, has updated its web-based Steam Component Selection Program.
The new, enhanced program (at www.hoffmanspecialty.com) makes it even
easier for engineers and installers to quickly and accurately choose the
components they need, and save the information for their records.
Hoffman Specialty steam pressure reducing valves, steam traps and steam
and water temperature regulators can all be selected with just a few
keystrokes.


Enhancements include:

o Pressure Reducing Valves (Series 2000): With just a few inputs
on an accurate system diagram screen, users can choose the correct valve
and control pilot(s), and verify the specifications. Job schedules can
be printed, emailed or saved, making changes, orders and recordkeeping
easier than ever.

o Temperature Regulators (1140 and 1141): Users can now select the
valve body and control actuator for greater versatility and accuracy.
o For all components, a Selection Report documents the entire job
history: inputs entered, products chosen, and specifications for each
chosen product.

Program, contact Hoffman Specialty at (773) 267-1600, or visit the
